CHARLOTTE CHURCH - CHURCH'S DAD BEGS FOR DAUGHTER TO GET IN CONTACT

CHARLOTTE CHURCH's estranged father has made a public plea to reunite with his daughter - despite not seeing the singer for the past 20 years.
Stephen Reed walked out on wife Maria when the star was just two years old.
Church, who is expecting a baby with rugby star Gavin Henson, changed her surname to that of her mother's second husband James Church when he adopted her.
But her biological dad now claims he is desperate to reconcile their relationship - so that he can meet his 10-month-old granddaughter Ruby, Church's first child.
He says, "Please get in contact with me - I still love you.
"It upsets me very much that I've got a grandchild who I don't know and another on the way, but what can I do?
"My message to Charlotte is - if it concerns you that much, come and find out what I'm really like. I'm a good dad. I think I would be a good grandparent."
But the 22-year-old has previously declared she has no desire to become acquainted with her natural father or his immediate family.
She says, "They are strangers to me. I don't know if they are moral. Ignorance is bliss. I'm staying in my own ignorant bubble, right or wrong."
